Every November the famous Brighton Pavilion develop part of their Gardens into an Ice Rink. Its lit up beautifully of an evening and runs right through until the end of January.

I love the smell of this bookshop. On my first visit I felt like an explorer making a major archeological discovery. There is a basement, which you get to via a spiral staircase. I am convinced that behind one of the floor to ceiling books shelves is a secret room that opens up by sliding out a secret book from a shelf.

Here I am in the South Downs. This spot is around 5 minutes drive from the centre of Brighton. You can see for miles.

The Viaduct is one of those big pieces of architecture that you notice from afar and ignore close up. So get close for a major neck craning and you'll get that “how the hell did they ever build this…” feeling. When I look up I get vertigo and I doubt the strength of those spindly looking redbrick supports. Preston Road and Beaconsfield Road are good places to look around, and afterwards you can pop into the nearby Signalman pub.

Unlimited is an independent shop and gallery, stocking a range of playful and experimental graphic-flavoured prints, jewellery, homewares, textiles and furniture. They often rotate their exhibitions, which keeps the place feeling fresh and exciting. The shop exterior is worth a mention too, as it features large graphics by top designers like Supermundane and Gary Stranger (pictured).
